2 Samuel 3 - The Gentle King

The gentle kindness of God's anointed king changes the heart of all the people like no sword can do. Abner, the commander of the enemies army, relates with three different people in our story, Ish-Bosheth betrays him, David accepts him and Joab kills him. The challenge for believers is to reflect the character of the king and offer mercy when we want to bring the sword.
